OTHER MARKETS.
Cotton.

: New YORK, Oct. while cotton con-
TRACTS have undergone considerable fiuetua-
ition and run up a pretty full total of bust
ness, the market has been free from any very
: pronounced feature. The Texas poor crop
accounts and continued firmuess at the South
induced further covering, and ON this rates
-ranlup some three to four points and then
settled to fraction below last evening. The
demand, however, afterwards picked up
o9gain and restored figures to pretty near the
D highest, but the close was ragged, and the
SUPPORT apparently difficult. Generally the
market seems to have shown nothing except
covering by eleventh hour shorts and little,
II any, new investments for any month";.

Afternoon Stock Market.
New YORK Stock Exchange.

NEW YoRK, July 15.-The open
ing of the stock market was generally
strong this morning. though there were
advances on Yesterdays final figures
of from 1s to IS per cent, the only ex-
ception being in Jersey Central, which
was up 1 per cent. The market was
moderately active, but became quiet,
though there was a heavy trading in
Western Union and Reading. At IL
O'Clock the market was fairly active
and firm to strong. At noon prices
were shade lower and the market was
dull and heavy.
LATER-The dealings in the Stock
Exchange, to-day, were suddenly in
terrupted at noon by the death of
President a. B. Hall. and the Exchange
was closed for the remainder of the day
The trade during the session was
moderately active and, under the
general improved feeling was a marked
tone, although considerable feverish-
ness was apparent. The buying was of
good quality and attracted no marked
attention. The fluctuations were con-
fined to comparatively narrow limits,
except in a few stocks. Conspicuous
among these were Wheeling and Lake
Erie, Reading and Pacific Mail. The
final changes were usually in favor OF
higher figures, though those of the
active stocks are for Insignificant frac-
tons only.

r. F. Cunningham was in River
side yesterday working up PROPOSE
ton to build motor road from that
point to West Riverside, across the
Santa Ana river. 1t is very probable
that the road will be constructed, as
the inhabitants Of West Riverside
think it will advance the price of real
estate in their town more than enough
to pay the cost of its construction.
The Santa Fe Company is forced to
delay operations considerably upon
several of their extensions in South
ern California on account of the nom
arrival of materials for the roadbeds.
On these extensions the grading is
finished and the roadbeds ready for
the cross-ties and rails, which are on
the way to San Diego from Europe.

run this popular place of recreation in a
strictly frst-class manner. fine restau-

now in course of erection, and when COM
pleted will form a principal feature of at
traction. Arrangements are being made
with first-class orchestra to give prone
made concerts, the programmes Of which
will be duly published every Sunday after
noon.
A fine collection of animals is being
added, making this Park, in connection
with the Ostrich Farm, the most attractive
resort in Southern California. In the course
of two weeks the Los Angeles County Rail-
road will have in service six elegant passen-
ger coaches, with seating capacity of
eighty persons each and first class engine,
now en- route from the Baldwin Locomotive
Works; and the management will give posi-
tive assurance that the ride to and from the
park will not be made dread and annoy

interesting feature to the visitors to the gar
dens. The trip, taking but twenty minutes,
is through the finest scenery in the State.

A CHINESE FAMILY.
The Mother Flies to Save Her
children From slavery.

children From slavery.
All Young, the mother OF two in
teresting Chinese babies was arreste d
yesterday ON warrant from San
Francisco, charging her with having
abandoned her children, leaving them
in destitution. Shortly after her
arrest her friends swore out a writ OF
habeas corpus, which was to have been
heard yesterday afternoon at 2 O'Clock,
but was continued until this morning
at 10 o'clock. So far as could be
learned, the woman fled from San
Francisco with her two children, to
escape being placed in house OF i'll
fame, and to save her children from
being sold into slavery by
her husband, who determined
to get her in his hands
again and swore to the complaint on
which the warrant was issued. The
mother fed to Stockton, and from
there came to this city and finally
found work in a Chinese laundry at
Pomona. She talks English quite
fluently and says that she would will
lingly 20 to San Francisco if the offi-
Ger who is here after her will take her
to the Mission. She does not want 10
be given over to he husband. The
matter will probably he settled this
morning by the judge in this manner.

Suit for Hay.

Geo. Dryden sued G. H. Griffin OF the
Southern California Land Bureau for
the sum of $201.41, for hay. Griffin
stated that the hay was bad and the
horses would not eat it, but Dryden
had witnesses to prove that the hay
was of the best quality. Griffin
stated that he had offered to pay
plaintiff if lie would allow him re-
duction. His Honor ordered judg-
ment for the plaintiff for the full

CALIFORNIA SOUTHERN.
The Increase of Earnings During
the Past Year.

The earnings of the California
Southern Railroad Company demon
strate fully that the company's busi-
ness is on a continual boom. Last
year the earnings for the month of
October was $67,521; this year the
earnings for the same month amount
to nearly double that amount, or
$120, ,6lS, giving an increase OF 53,097.
This increase is partly owing to the
difference in the operating expenses
of the company, which is using sixty
eight miles less of track than formerly.
During 1886 there were in operation
27S miles Of track, this year there are
only 2lO miles. The increase in the
freight business for October of this
year is $50, ,052, aDd in the passenger
business for the same months, it
amounts to $16,OS6. These figures
are only sample of how the business
is increasing, and speak well for the
country through which the road runs
The head officials of the overland
roads have settled upon a plan to
effectually sQuelch any sturbances
in the passenger rate business. 1t is
to be done by an agreement to abol-
ish any commissions on the sales
OF tickets. This agreement originated
at the meeting OF the general passen-
ger agents of transcontinental lines in
Chicago, which closed last Saturday.
The principal thing at this meeting
was the agreement that they would
pay no commissions to anyone upon
any theory or business emanating
from California. The agreement says
that such company must deposit $500
to make it binding, and if it is vio-
lated by any agent, the company he
represents will be fined $50 for the
first, and 800 for the second offense.
For every ticket sold upon which
commissions are paid, these fines will
be exacted. None of the companies
can withdraw from the agreement ex-
cept by giving thirty days notice
after the 1st of next December.
Another New Road.
A railroad is now being graded be-
tween Coldwater caiIon and the Palms.
The line will be six miles long, and
will connect with the California Cen
trail on the Ballona branch, at the
Palms. Work was commenced upon
it day before yesterday, large force
of men and teams being sent down
and located at the Palms, from which
place they will work rapidly toward
Coldwater caf1on. The object in build
ing this road is to gain an easy access
